Daniela and Marion won a really close match against Martinez and Schett 11-9 in the supertiebreak. They're through to the final as Clijsters and Stubbs withdrew from their match against Austin & Jaeger which let Daniela and Marion win Group A. They play Martina Navratilova & Cara Black in the final who won Group B.2019_SL_draw.jpg

Daniela & Marion lost to Navratilova/Black 6-0 3-6 10-8. They got bageled in the first set but came back to win the second set and fought back from 3-7 down in the Supertiebreak to get to 8-8 before Navratilova & Black won the last two points.

For those legends who play in the senior invitation doubles, does Wimbledon foot the bill for them to travel to and stay in a hotel during the tournament? Is the airfare first class?
—Mark S., Encino, Calif.

• My moles tell me that for legends events in general, players can make in the neighborhood of $10,000. (At some events there’s graduated prize money; at others there is a flat fee.) Accommodations are usually offered. (The French offers a small flight stipend.) In many cases, the players are on-site anyway, whether they are coaching or broadcasting or acting as an administrator. (At Wimbledon, for instance, the women’s event featured broadcasters Tracy Austin, Mary Joe Fernandez, Kim Clijsters, Barbara Schett and Daniela Hantuchova, so travels and expenses were, presumably, covered.) The other great perk is the “competitor badge”—and with that, the “transport privileges,” the ability to be shuttled around by the tournament drivers.
